Discover! Science 6
What are living things made of? How are traits passed from one generation to the next? And how do the systems of the body work together to keep us alive and healthy? Discover! Science 6 helps students investigate these questions through a comprehensive study of life science.
This full-year homeschool curriculum explores cells, genetics, bacteria, viruses, protists, fungi, plants, animal anatomy, reproduction, and major body systems, including the skeletal and muscular systems. Through colorful student worktexts, your child will examine the structures, processes, and relationships that define living organisms.
Lessons combine engaging readings, hands-on activities, observations, and review exercises to help students build understanding while making meaningful connections between concepts. As your child progresses through the course, he'll strengthen critical-thinking skills while learning to observe, analyze, compare, and explain scientific ideas.
The accompanying Instructor Guide provides lesson support, answer keys, assessments, pacing suggestions, and additional teaching ideas. Together, the worktexts and guide create an open-and-go program that is easy to implement while still providing meaningful science instruction.
Designed specifically for homeschool families, Discover! Science 6 combines clear explanations, thoughtful activities, and flexible support to help your child develop a strong foundation in life science while building the skills needed for future scientific study.

Great program but requires a lot of prep & supplies
Frances J.
We're really enjoying this program and pair it with lessons on the PBS website. Something I didn't realize was the amount of supplies necessary for this course. Most of the supplies are things you probably have laying around the house but it does call for a microscope, slides, etc. (I think you can print a list of weekly supplies needed - it would be worth looking at that prior to ordering to make sure you've got everything needed.) The workbook is very engaging and worded at an age-appropriate level. Using this curriculum will help solidify knowledge that my son was learning in 6th grade but had trouble retaining.
